Well, as it turns out, "global climate" means something different than "local weather". As one would think those who speak English would understand...clearly not, it appears...

The ping ball game!
Weather not climate!
Friday it will be weather is climate!

It's minus 29 here now....it'd be something to see this drift about 1000 miles south of here...just give the south a taste for a day or so.

Where is "here"? It won't get that cold in my "here" thank God!

Or, REALLY cold weather strikes Michigan! Next 3 days our temps will rival Barrow Alaska. It's gonna be rough. Damn Global Warming!!

Weather forecast doesn't really matter where I live. If it's winter you get lake effect snow. Tons of it. Snow from a noreaster is different and a novelty.

I’m happy there are people like you who like living in such places. Makes my region nice.

I love the western side of Michigan but would never live there in the winter. They get tons of snow from Lake Michigan.

Minus 29...while not that bad....can be a shock to people's bodies. I can handle it with a sweatshirt gloves and good hat. It amazes me when the south gets 8 inches of snow. Shuts things down. It makes me chuckle. 8 inches of snow shouldn't change a thing.

 

[initforme]

Tons of snow? In lower Michigan? Not really.

Yeah. Grand Rapids got hit hard yesterday. We didn't get that much snow, but they're not getting the cold.

I get tired of the cold sometimes but I like snow:downhill skiing, snowmobiling, snowshoeing. I like the variety of changing seasons. Maybe when I'm really old I will move south to del voca vista

That's lake effect. It builds character.

It got cold in the Winter and hot in the Summer long before anyone ever came up with the terms global warming, global cooling or climate change.

I am roughly 40 miles north of Twin Cities.
Current temp -25 out my door.
Dropping to -35 tonight with a freaking high of -17 tomorrow.

In other words.
A typical wed.

Tonight its dipping to -25ish in Minneapolis. Staurday and Sunday is forecasted for +38ish. Hmm what's more alarming? Better go scream about alarmists on the boards.

Wow!!! You're right!!!

Today puts the argument for global warming destroying earth finally to rest. Global warming is a lie.

You have my sympathies -- both climate wise and politically.

I have nothing to whine about, but today was the coldest I've ever experienced. Temperture wise, we are the same as Antarctica today.

 

[Dreadnaught1968]

Well, here in Wisconsin, it's pretty much a normal winter. -26 this morning, but I've seen colder, and it's nowhere near the record. Not sure why some are freaked out by this.
